Information for Growers

Grow Lightly is always on the lookout for local growers. Our growers list includes people with their own vegie gardens or backyard fruit trees who sometimes have some surplus, as well as larger market gardens and orchards. All produce is grown organically, according to Grow Lightly principles.
